My big fat gypsy wedding

I am hooked on this show due to my facination to try to understand it. It is just completely crazy to me their rules about not being alone with boys, kissing them or even dating them until they 'engage' but yet their clothes?!? And the fact that there are 4/7/11 year olds dressing the same and dirty dancing!! Wow. I just don't get it!

It's stupid but I get it .
Women are property ... So there for when you sell your property ( and the husband does pay btw) you Want it to be top quality ( virgin) and free Of any deseases ( which u can get through kissing )

But they are " paraded" in parties ect like sluts to show off the goods so they can get married young . This is their whole existence .

Jsthegrlnxtdoor - that is a good summery of the culture. i have seen the show and have seen a few girls who insist on staying in school and kind of buck the system that way so i think it's good that maybe other of girls will see that and do the same. it's a twisted world. i actually find it sad the way they accept being rulled by a man but they really dont know better. i try to not watch it since the first few times i saw it.

Jamie- how do your local ones look? I watched the original show, then saw the American version. I just would have assumed they were Jersey Shore Whores wanna-bes. My fiend has recently bought an RV and decided to travel US. Said she found pockets of gypsy culture along way.
Would you think in this day and she that the girls would realize they can have their owns lives. Some do get jobs, and want independence.

It's like a car crashyou just have to look. Catch my husband sometimes stopping on show when he is channel surfing! Lol

My friend is from England, she said they call them pikeys and they are considered the worst white trash. She said they get their money from stealing and cheating the system. She actually told me about them before the show came on, somehow we got on the subject. When I first saw the show I was hooked LOL but my friend hates it bc they don't show the whole story, like HOW they get all that money. It is a crazy show :)
